Travis Kelce Worked With an Acting Coach for Months Before ‘Grotesquerie’ Shoot and ‘Knew Everybody’s Lines,’ Says Ryan Murphy


Travis Kelce worked with an acting coach for months leading up to 'Grotesquerie' and 'knew everybody's lines,' said series co-creator Ryan Murphy.

Instead of relaxing after winning the Super Bowl with the Kansas City Chiefs, Travis Kelce decided to apply for other jobs — this time, in Hollywood. “ Grotesquerie ” co-creator and director Ryan Murphy said in a virtual press conference on Monday that he had a general meeting with Kelce in which the NFL star “said he was interested in getting into acting.” At the time, Murphy was just starting pre-production on “Grotesquerie,” his latest limited series for FX about a detective, played by Niecy Nash-Betts, uncovering a string of heinous crimes that feel eerily personal to her.
